The Devils Workshop

The Devils Playground is an evil sadistic jungle where the predator rules. Rules in which there are none and the people are lawless. The rules of the
game is just like playing chess, moving pieces on a chess board. A game where evil rises to the top psychopathic, sociopathic and narcissistic
tendencies reign supreme. The hoarding of resources and knowledge, the creation of man made disasters.

A playground where deceit and lies are encouraged, where idols are worshipped and blood sacrifice a badge of honor. A playground where
all governments are selected not elected, where history is re-written and false gods are created. Where media is controlled and fake enemies
are created to divide the people. A playground where truth seekers are targeted and gang stalked, where the youth are fed propaganda from
their teachers and the prison system created to maximize profits.

A playground where the poor are frowned upon, the mentally ill abandoned. Where the seperation of black and white are promoted, where
spying and lack of privacy runs rampant. A playground where police, military and gangs are initiate's of an evil higher order, where major
celebrities are mind controlled and where test tube babies are placed in key positions. A playground where freewill is an enemy and more
vices of control become necessary, where drug are used as a form of escape and where police kill on sight. A playground where even the
future seems bleak from propaganda that the future shall unfold a transhumanistic agenda, that every man and woman shall recieve the
mark of the beast, that WW3 is just on the horizon.

A brief description of the devil. Who is he? And is he a threat to you?

In cartoons and comics, the devil appears as a cute, benign tempter, pushing you to do something that's fun or a little bit wrong. In reality however,
Satan is anything but cute.

Who is the devil? He is not God's counterpart, because God has no equal, no opposite. God has always existed, and everything else that exists now,
including angels, were created by God.

The devil (sometimes referred to as Satan or Lucifer) is an angel who rebelled against God. He is the enemy not only of God, but also of humankind,
relentless in his mission: to kill, destroy, or enslave us. We're warned, "...be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion,
seeking someone to devour."1

The devil's power is laughable compared to the power of God. Yet, he is a real threat to humans, and has the capacity to ruin a person's life.

Satan has one primary tactic: to deceive us. He seeks to deceive entire nations, the world, and individuals. He twists and distorts what is true, and
there is power in his lies.

Dr. Neil Anderson made an astute observation. He said the Bible describes Satan in three ways:
- The tempter
- The accuser
- The father of lies

Dr. Anderson noted, "If I were to tempt you, you would know it. If I were to accuse you, you would know it. But if I were to deceive you, you wouldn't
know it. The power of Satan is in the lie. If you remove the lie you remove the power."

God created Adam and Eve with free will to choose and make decisions, just like humans can today. The Garden of Eden contained perhaps hundreds of
fruit-bearing trees. The only instruction God gave to Adam and Eve was to not eat from one particular tree. It was a straightforward instruction to
follow. Just don't eat from that one tree or you will die. Simple enough.

Yet Satan persuaded Eve, "You will not surely die." That's the initial lie. Now he lies further, "You will not surely die. For God knows that when you
eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."2

Satan deceived Eve, convincing her that God was withholding something wonderful from them, that this fruit would make them like God. And wouldn't that
be a good thing? The problem was, it wasn't true. Adam and Eve believed Satan's lie, rather than what God told them, leading to horrible consequences.
That's exactly how the devil operates. He distorts the truth in order to harm the person.

Satan's greatest desire is to keep people far away from God. He will seek to either cause you to deny God's existence or to slander, lie about God's
character. Here's an example.

God repeatedly affirms his love for us. "I have loved you with an everlasting love, therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you."3 "...not that
we loved God, but that he loved us..."4 "See what kind of love the Father has given to us..."5 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life."6

But what does Satan say? "God doesn't love you. Look at all the problems you have. If God loved you, you wouldn't have these problems." Sounds
convincing.

Yet all people face problems. It's part of life. What Satan neglects to tell you is that if you have a relationship with God and depend on him, God
can lead you through those problems. You do not need to shoulder or solve them on your own. God can give you wisdom and real strength in the midst of
those problems. Not only that, but he says while we face difficulties, "...my peace I give to you..."7 Why? Because the person knows that God can be
trusted.

Without God, a person is described as "without hope in this world." That is not God's desire for anyone.

Not only does Satan try to deceive you about God's goodness, but Satan also slanders you to God. Satan did this with a man named Job. Satan said if
Job suffered, then Job would curse God to his face, which Job never did. Satan seeks to undermine you and condemn you before God.

But not only that. Satan turns his slander and condemnation toward you.

He convinces you, "God wouldn't want you. You could never be holy enough. Look at all the junk in your life, all the ways you've failed, the things
you do, the addictions you have. God would never accept you or want you. You'd never make it."

Again, all lies. God is very clear that none of us need to become "good" in order to be accepted by God, nor to become sinless in order to maintain
that relationship with God.

Jesus said of Satan, "He was a murderer from the beginning...there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a
liar and the father of lies."8

The contrast between the devil and God is stunning. Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life
and have it abundantly."9

Jesus says of those who believe in him, "If you abide in my word...you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."10

Instead of being deceived by Satan, there is an opportunity to know what God says is true about himself, about your life, about relationships. While
Satan would like you to be enslaved by his deception, God wants you to know what's true, to be free and experience real life.

In addition to being a liar and an accuser, Satan, through his lies, tempts people toward slavery and addictions. "Oh go ahead. One more won't hurt
you. No one will find out. You're not really hurting anyone. And you'll feel so much better."

Hello Crunky.
A very interesting piece and well written. Perhaps better in a conspiracy or NWO forum, but since I belonged to this forum, glad I got a chance to
read your piece.

My only consideration is this: Since you brought in the religious angle, IF God did in fact create ALL of this, then is he/she/it not responsible for
ALL of it. God therefore is aware of evil, since he created it. Going with that potentially, then, today WE need to say where the hell is HE.
Darkness is simply the absence of light. Where has the light gone.

You may remember these famous words:

“My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?”

There is no doubt that EVIL exists, it always has. Odds are that it always will.

The concept of personal responsibility leads me to view the Devil as just an accuser or prosecutor.

I'm convinced we tempt ourselves, and we humans are the liars and killers and thieves.

In fact I don't think the Devil is thought to have actually killed a single person or stole a thing.

What if you were responsible for your own actions and couldn't keep blaming the Devil? Is that so hard to accept?

How can God forgive you for your Sin if you keep denying responsibility and saying it was the Devil's machinations and agenda?

Care to address this?

I agree with your point exactly that its the personal responsibility of the individual who does evil. The Devil and his minions are more like the
whisperer's in your head that you have the freewill to ignore and do good.
Just because a person suffers from bad thoughts and images in their head doesn't mean they have to act in that way, see that's where the freewill of
that person comes into play. Don't forget also that the Devil and his devil worshippers have created test tube babies who have been manipulated since
birth and placed in key positions.

Maybe its the duality of Gods personality being played out on the world stage, he has maybe good qualities and bad

He is the evil one, the Prince of Darkness, the ruler of Hell. Satan conjures up horrifying images of a horned beast whose sole purpose is to destroy
humanity. Yet there is evidence that the fallen angel we know as Satan may be misunderstood. New interpretations of ancient texts indicate that Satan
may have been an extraterrestrial who was more of an ally to humanity than an enemy by passing along knowledge that planted the seed for civilization.
Could Satan's reputation as the personification of evil be his punishment for leading early man out of darkness and ignorance? If so, might his evil
acts really be expressions of revenge against the human creatures that abandoned him? Or are the devilish deeds associated with Satan part of a grand
plan? A series of moral challenges intended to prepare us for our next, and perhaps final… close encounter?

I thought that once and challenged the devil that his temptations won't work on me, and after that
I experienced an onslaught of temptations I couldn't resist. He has the power to really kick crap out of humans in all kinds of ways, and his demons
laugh when they are successful.

They know how to expertly target humans to get what they want, and what they want is for all humans to self destruct and not know God. When we screw
up badly it is then easy to feel that God doesn't want us in his family, but he definitely does and loves us more than we can even imagine.
